Melding two of Sydney’s grandest and most prominent historical buildings (the State Theatre and Gowings on Market & George Streets) into one hotel has involved a painstaking restoration process culminating in the creation of a bold and unique hotel experience.

To ensure impact on arrival, QT Sydney’s art consultants, designers and architects worked to bring the history and rich fabric of both buildings together through an energetic collection of original artwork and graphics. The bold design of the hotel is set off by the historical features forming a space that serves not just as a lobby, but as a playground after dark. A striking LED wall of digital art is a feature of the public areas within the hotel, adding a dramatic and intriguing display to these already enticing surroundings.

Eclectic and quirky artefacts have been brought together from all around the world adding an unusual mix of interesting elements to the QT experience. Bespoke furniture, graphics and a strong use of colour are some of the unmissable highlights of the QT design with a bold use of black and white, Yves Klien blue, magenta and citron throughout.
